My skeleton is in the mirror

an exposed rib cage, with narrow returns

I think it’s all I’ve ever seen

Yeah, it’s all I’ve ever seen

And my words are walls that I hide behind

I have concrete thoughts, with hollow headlines

I guess it’s all they’ve ever been

Yeah, it’s all they’ve ever been

Well, I suppose today’s just a date on a calendar

that gets left for dead but begs to return

Aren’t we all just a date?

Yeah, I think we’re all just a date

And your heart once measured my happiness

but I got too caught up in its resonance

and so it left me behind

Yeah, you just left me behind

I thought I buried you for good

beneath my mind’s crawlspace

but no amount of dirt

could ever hide your face

Yeah, so here you are today

Now your fucking ghost keeps me awake at night

Your subtle features, my sharp hindsight

You just never go away

Yeah, you’ll just never go away

Will you ever go away? Please?
